FS : Real Mccoys Buco J24 size 42.

[zelda__]

For sale is my Real Mccoy’s Buco J24 that I bought online. It’s a bit small for me (unable to zip fully and be comfortable. 44-46 would have worked. I got this jacket this month.

Measurements
Pit to pit 21 inches
Shoulder to shoulder 18 inches
jacket length from top of collar 27 or so inches
Sleeves to shoulder 26 inches

Attached are pictures. Any questions please ask. New here and unsure how payments work but I heard PayPal friends and family or something works. In the NYC area if you want to meet.

Looking for $2000 + shipping OBO

As a rant, I was really looking forward to this jacket, it’s basically perfect but too small in the chest. The bi swing back makes it a bit more forgivable but just that slight size difference makes me want to not keep it.

Here is my 20 minute experience of this jacket: Looks fantastic, the brass colored hardware looks much better than the silver colored on some jackets like the Fine creek leathers Harris. Negatives are that real McCoy sizing is real deceptive like y2 leathers. I’ve had two real mccoy jackets and both are too small for me. I may just keep it and wear it unzipped since that’s the main issue.

Ah I've heard old and new have differences, I thought the old slimmer would work in 42, but alas I over estimate myself.

Damn 21" pit-to-pit on a size 42 jacket.. Usually size 36-38 jackets have 21".

You should stop thinking in terms of exact measurements. A great pattern with 21" ptp might provide better movement than a weak pattern that has a 23" ptp.

You recently told me about your 'perfect' jacket measurements, there is no such thing. Depending on the style and pattern I can wear anything from 20.5" to 24" ptp.

Here's the ptp on an original Buco size 42, a great pattern. 21" and it perfectly fits my 43" chest.
